Jordan S. @jswez Apr 14 Being a fan of Jake Johnson I saved this a couple years ago but it left before I could watch it so I was exited to see it was on another streaming service now. The plot sounded interesting and I was surprised to see how many talented actors kept popping up throughout. This is where the excitement disappeared. This movie had so much potential but fell flat in the end. Disappointing is an understatement. See more Thomas M P @Bluevelvet Apr 4 This could have been a 1-hour TV program on a series. I liked all the actors and figured I'd watch it. Very predictable and slow. I like most movies to some degree, but this was not one of them. See more Downriver R @Downriver Feb 18 With the amount of absolutely outstanding A list actors that are in this that I love watching [Sam Rockwell Sam Elliot] not even them could save this horrible written film. It's not the acting that makes this movie suck. I say even though great actors are in it I'd just go ahead and pass on this one. Felt like i was watching grass grow. Boring/ super slow/ no buildup/ doesn't get your attention at any point. So the main actor in this the funny guy from tag I forget his name. He just isn't very believable in this. Maybe they should of picked somebody different for the lead actor. And maybe if they change directors this could of been decent.

It addresses the subtle cracks in relationships that continue to expand over time. Unfortunately, by comparison Digging for Fire feels mundane and almost useless. It has a great ensemble cast but they have nothing to do and certainly very little that is interesting to say. It feels pretty manufactured despite its core messages being fairly resounding. See more 05/30/2021 I liked the vibe and the cast, but it's not that cohesive of a movie and certainly not a "mystery/thriller" as it is listed here. It's more of a light indie comedy/drama. See more 02/02/2021 Not sure why this scored so low on Rotten Tomatoes... feel like i saw a different movie to whoever scored it low? It's a great indie, was unpredictable, some funny bits, felt very real and honest. It's not trying to be anything. An intriguing story about a certain point in your life when you're young parents and trying to figure out your life - which I'm leading up to now, so maybe that's why i related and got so much from it. In a nut shell: About relationships yet about individuals; Fun yet serious; Comedic yet emotional; Adventurous yet down to earth. See more Read all reviews
